1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Psychosis temporally related to seizure episodes has been a recognized entity with much clinical attention, yet there are less clear guidelines for treatment. Presence of perceptual disturbances and cognitive impairment symptoms make the differentiation between primary psychoses and seizure- related psychoses blurred. Moreover, there are only a few reported cases describing clinical presentation, diagnostic dilemma and treatment challenges when these two entities are present at the same time, with overlapping symptomatology. We describe such a case where the presence of these two problems complicated the diagnoses and the patient's subsequent management required a very intricate collaboration between psychiatry and neurology. In addition, we review available published articles including case reports, studies, and review articles regarding the diagnosis and treatment of this complicated clinical presentation. Some of the analyses were reviewed in detail and resulting outcomes are discussed. Finally, we review the diagnostic and treatment guidelines in the context of the presenting case.
